Ruprekha Banerjee, born in 1989 in Agarpara (a small town in the northern suburbs of Kolkata), was one of the three finalists of Fame Gurukul, one of the most watched television shows in India - along with Rex D'Souza and Qazi Touqeer. On 20 October 2005, she managed to grab the top prize along with Qazi Touqeer.
All through the 4 months spent in Gurukul, Ruprekha was always on the sidelines but managed to perform well. Some people have criticized the decision of her being chosen the winner on the account of the fact that she was not always a good on-stage performer even though her singing was very good.
Her Debut Album Yeh Pal with Qazi Touqeer went Double Platinum in India and sold over 5 million copies worldwide.
Currently she is participating in a new reality show aired by Star Plus named "Jo Jeeta Wohi Superstar".
